It is used to describe the intense feelings that arise within a person, whether in the context of compassion, longing, or even anger. The term suggests an internal movement or stirring that prompts a response.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, emotions were often described in terms of physical sensations, such as warmth or stirring within the body. The heart and inward parts were seen as the seat of emotions. The verb "kamar" reflects this understanding, as it describes the internal emotional responses that drive human actions. Compassion and yearning were highly valued in the communal and familial settings of ancient Israel, where relationships and kinship were central to societal structure.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to grow warm and tender, to be or grow hot<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>become as hot (1), deeply* (1), kindled (1), stirred (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> I.
